Let’s be real. Nick and I don’t have any fancy plans for Valentine’s Day. I honestly don’t think in the 8 years we’ve been together that we’ve ever gone out of our way to celebrate. Is that normal in serious relationships? Or are we just weird? Feel free to fill me in on what’s appropriate because I’ve never seen the appeal…
Lace Midi Dress (available in 5 colors & under $100!) | Leather Jacket | Similar Pumps | Saint Laurent Wallet On A Chain | Kendra Scott Cuffs c/o | Similar Necklace | Similar Watch | Aviators
So now that you all know that Nick and I suck at date nights, let’s get back on topic. Dresses! Especially now that we’ve had a few glimpses of spring (it was almost 60 degrees yesterday!) and even if a fancy dinner isn’t the reason, I’ll take any excuse to get dressed up. Right now I’m really looking forward to baring my legs and slipping into something other than joggers and sweaters. Spring I’m ready when you are!
I love this dress so much I have it in two colors… Can’t go wrong with cranberry red or classic black!
Remember this lace midi dress? One of the reasons I love it so much is because you can wear it any season. I was obsessed with it during the holidays and the love hasn’t gone away. The best part? It’s only $89 and comes in five different colors. Sadly the cranberry red is out of stock, but you can still snag it in classic black or navy. There’s also a really pretty light coral and a new lavender shade. I WANT.

Even if you don’t have anything scheduled with a boo on February 14, there’s no reason why you can’t #treatyoself. With the January blues in full force (literally I hate this month) I’m jumping on any little thing I can find to brighten my day whether that’s going for a pedicure, getting lunch with a friend, trying a new recipe or indulging in a little retail therapy 😛

Oh I love that Rose wrap dress! My husband and I never do anything big for Valentines Day, but I like to celebrate with something personal like exchanging cards or homemade treats. One year I made homemade heart Oreos! xAllie http://www.theallthatglittersblog.com

Gorgeous dress! My husband and I usually go out to a nicer dinner than usual but nothing crazy. We exchange cards too!
Lynne says
No special events here…candy! Also, my Dad’s middle name was Valentine, so that made it special.
With those stunning dresses (and my favorite black pumps), you must go out!
As my Mom says about most holidays: Everyday is St. Valentines Day!

Matt and I really don’t celebrate either, and we’ve been together for 3 years. Just a casual dinner/drink situation as per our usual date nights!

My boyfriend and I decided early in our relationship that we didn’t care about gifts for the holiday but we wanted to spend time quality time with each other. For us that means every year we pick an activity we wouldn’t usually do and spend the day having fun together! Over the years its spanned rock climbing, a thai massage class, archery, trapeze school, visiting cool museums, taking a cooking class at the Institute of Culinary Education.

That dress is so beautiful! I definitely think I’m going to have to think about ordering one for myself! Also, my boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years and we never do anything special for Valentines Day! We usually just make dinner at home and watch a movie. Nothing fancy!

You are simply stunning in the red lace dress! I been contemplating purchasing that dress, but I did just buy a red swing dress for Vday. I never wear red but I am now excited to wear it!
